It helps to remember that "everyone" in this context is actually just a small subset of internet users who have nothing better to do than complain about things online. This is not the attitude or opinion of the actual majority.

Knowing that doesn't make their rhetoric any less rampant and annoying.

It's okay, there's literally a smaller minority of gamers that think AC is a failure. They don't matter because their refusal to play new AC games hasn't made a dent in sales for Ubi. But they'll sure love to tell you about how AC hasn't been good since the 1st one, as if anyone gives a shit.

I saw on reddit that Ubisoft was thinking of adding a white guy samurai because of the outrage. Why the fuck can't they just add a Japanese samurai if they're gonna do that?

Without truth, there is nothing.
Because male Asians have been getting their roles taken for ages. Sexy Asian females for the white protagonists to "get" at the end are fair game tho

Yeah I'm sure that's the reason for the outrage. Cause those people are oh so concerned about male Asian roles.

No. One of the other times in the series that a person was "in the wrong country" it was a Welsh guy. If it was actually anything that wasn't just about racism they would bring him up as a problem as well.

Mortal Kombat 1 made their Asian-based characters look more Asian and less white and the same types of people got pissed, so...

Literally the very first AC had a "wrong culture for setting" character. Altair is French I think. But the game is in the Holy Land. There never was a hard rule that the MC HAS to be a native to the region
Actually... do we even know her name yet?

Hattori Hanzo and Kotaro Fuma have already been in a hundred games, so whatever.

Historically known Kunoichi are pretty damn rare, I wonder if they'll even have a single one in the game talk to the OC Female Ninja.

Everyone knows there weren't black people in Japan and women weren't invented until 1893.

Some would, some wouldn't.

I remember The Last Samurai getting dunked on for having a white samurai from over 20 years ago.

It's true. Remember the outrage over Freedom Cry?

Lol there's no way that's happening at this point in development. That's just racist copium.

A lesbian black female ninja samurai, for max triggering.

The best part is there is zero records of a kunoichi ever fighting or assassinating anyone (lot of records of female samurai who fought in battle, but no ninja). Yet the people crying about historical realism take issue with a guy documented to have fought in at least one battle and possibly two others.

Can we talk about how AC is a series with a lot of fake history because it is a fictional game with weird time traveling and body swapping.

They aren't actually aliens. Unless the lore got retconned. They are an intelligent species that existed on earth before humanity

If there are records, doesn't that mean they sucked at their job?

According to the "real" history bros even existing records don't count, so if you have none, you extra didn't exist in a fictional setting.

Yeah, you're correct as far as I know. I was just going with the shorthand term.
